The poem is a parody of the first lines of Yeat's poem, "Sailing to Byzantium":

That is no country for old men. The young

In one another's arms, birds in the trees,

—Those dying generations—at their song

The time to market for a new vaccine is mostly not in the development, it is in the necessary safety testing before deploying it.

But you can't, of course, have the latter without the former.

The courts have a third party doctrine. If you willingly give your data to a third party (the airlines) it's not a violation for the government to also use it.

You presumably know this but just to clarify for other readers: it's if you willingly give your data to a third party (the airlines) and the third party willingly gives it to the government, then it's not a violation for the government to use it.

Note there's an exception for cell tower data because courts ruled that cellphones are absolutely necessary for people to live their lives today. They collect so much data that applying Third Party Doctrine to that data is tantamount to a 24/7 100% carte blanche surveillance system across the entire country, so SCOTUS carved this one out.

"Willingly" needs an update in the age of hidden and unreadable ToS agreements and data brokers. I willingly board a plane, which the airline takes to mean that I willingly agree to their contract of carriage, so I willingly hand over my data to a data broker that passes it to the government. But was I really agreeing to any of that?

Which is an insane doctrine in 2025 although I can see how it made more sense historically.

They gotta get a search warrant for a storage locker or bank box. They ought to have to get the same warrant for your gmail or fitness app records or whatever. "Papers and effects" and all that.

Hard to believe an Alphabet company doesn't support Android.

I wonder if a water only fast would also work.

The problem with developing new antibiotics is that pharma wants to sell them at a high price to recover research costs. But older antibiotics are out of patent an are dirt cheap. So the new antibiotics only make sense in the limited cases where no old antibiotic works. So pharma finds itself selling into a small market that is hard to sell to, because antibiotic resistance is unpredictable. That's why there's a perennial problem of no new antibiotics. The problem isn't the science, it's the economic system of our system of medicine.

Hopefully some kind of government support should be possible?

Disappointed that Tibetan is still not available. It's not clear how the decision of what languages to add was made.

Tibetan is part of the languages listed. Perhaps it is not released to everyone yet: the link below says "Over the next few days, you will see new languages available..."

No, in Spanish double negations are not positive statements.

There are two problems. The first is while testosterone reduces fertility, it does not reduce it sufficiently without another steroid like progestin. The second is that testosterone must be injected or reliable birth control and self-injection is a problem for many men.
